There were two of these in the Brigade, does anybody have any photos of this in use?

If you google ''NEFA Fire at Port Clarence Works'' their is a 4 min film where it appears at around 3 mins in not doing much! But worth watching whole 1976 film for Clevelands Bedford TK PHP, Bedford J5, Dodge K100s etc

Thanks for that, managed to get a couple of stills from the film, just about to paint the monitor all red and the film shows some white on some of the fixed pipe work, just in time!

If you also look at another film on the NEFA film archive snappily entitled Middlesbrough and Teesside Fire Brigade Inspection Awards and Training Reel 1 there are more views 4 to 6 min in.
Plus lots of of lovely white front AEC Mecury / HCB Angus appliances.

Thanks for that very interesting, especially a frame being towed by the Foam tanker

All you need now is a foam tanker !

I’ve got a 1978 Land Rover L4P to tow it
